Why should you concern yourself with his actions? Huangfu Ruiling sounded a touch bitter. Such a naive individual, he deserved to be taken advantage of.

Dont be arbitrarily jealous, Ye Lengan impa.s.sively responded. Im serious. Besides, if you hadnt brought it up, I would have totally forgotten that I once saved Nangong Xuyao.

Seems I shouldnt have mentioned it at all! exclaimed Huangfu Ruiling, facepalming. Whether you knew or not wouldnt have impacted you.

That definitely wont do, Ye Lengan quickly retorted, thats a medical bill worth a billion! If I merely let it slide, it would pain me greatly!

Listening to Ye Lengans words, Huangfu Ruiling couldnt help but lightly laugh. Youre absolutely right, that medical bill is of significant importance.

Enough about all this, whats the update on your family situation? Ye

Lengan s.h.i.+fted subjects. l cant imagine your father simply agreeing to step dovvn as family head!

If he were truly amenable, then Zhongyu Liuying wouldnt have lowered their pride and sought her out.

He cant cause any substantial trouble, Huangfu Ruiling confidently responded. Regardless of his current intentions, it really doesnt matter. Every decision is set in stone. Everyone needs to be accountable for their actions and words. His age doesnt allow for a possibility of any regrets.

He must be extremely dissatisfied! Ye Lengan chuckled. l imagine him leaping around trying to stop you!

Indeed. Huangfu Ruiling agreed with a nod, He is currently persuading the elders of the Huangfu family, hoping they might intervene. Hes also been in contact with the groups shareholders aiming for a similar outcome.

Alas, no one was naive enough to accept Huangfu Jingzhangs proposition. Whilst personal benefit was an enticing argument, one needed to evaluate the overall situation. The majority of the Huangfu familys influence fell under his control; no one dared to oppose him.

In that case, I should watch this drama unfold! Ye Lengan laughed.

Fortunately, this doesnt coincide with the National Mathematics Olympiad.

Otherwise, it would truly be disappointing.

If there were indeed a clash with the Olympiad, she would have to grudgingly partic.i.p.ate. After all, she had made a promise to the princ.i.p.al in the first place. It was due to this very commitment that she was permitted to miss the previous training session.

Promises were meant to be kept. Otherwise, next time, the princ.i.p.al might not permit her to leave. If that were to happen, it would indeed be lamentable.

If theres a conflict of schedule, couldnt the date be adjusted? Huangfu

Ruiling proposed indifferently, Such a small issue can surely be resolved.

Id rather not, Ye Lengan playfully retorted, sticking out her tongue. If we were to adjust, Im afraid of being criticized! Even so, Im sure your father would be quite grateful if I were to push it back, dont you think?

Huangfu Ruiling arched an eyebrow, unable to counter the point. He nonchalantly glanced at the invitation laid on the table, enquiring, Will you be attending Mrs. Nangongs banquet?

Absolutely, Ye Lengan replied immediately. l wont miss such an event!

Shortly, it was time to return to school. Although she often sought leave, Ye Lengan made a few special exceptions. At the very least, the princ.i.p.al needed to occasionally witness her presence at school.

Both Ye Xiyuan and Qian Gumeng arrived at school the same day. Unusually, they did not appear as inseparable as before, their connection seemed distant.

However, those previously present at Ye Xiyuans birthday party were aware of the reasons. Therefore, everyone accepted the change without surprise. Soon, rumors circulated throughout the school. When some students gazed upon Qian Gumeng, their eyes held a strange curiosity though they refrained from malicious gossip.

Qian Gumeng, head bowed, made her way through the school campus. Anytime she chanced a glance at others, she became all too aware of their whispering and pointing fingers. Unable to handle such a transformation, she felt daunted to even lift her gaze to confront others..
